__qualname__ not updated

[RazerM]

functools.update_wrapper sets wrapper.__qualname__ to wrapped.__qualname__, is there a reason that decorator.decorator doesn't do the same?

I tried searching for a reason this is the case, but came up blank.

The reason is quite simple: when the decorator module was first written, the __qualname__ attribute did not exist. It is a "recent" invention of Python. I will add that attribute in the next release.
